External keeper/relayer not redundant

Pendle Finance's assessment for RD-F-062 — scored yellow on the v1.7.0 rubric. The evidence below is the curator's reasoning for this score.

Evidence summary #

LayerZero V1 governance messaging uses default oracle+relayer (LayerZero Labs operated, no redundancy). Source code of PendleMsgSendEndpointUpg.sol confirms default send/receive version. PENDLE OFT (V2) DVN configuration not confirmed — may use LayerZero default DVN (single operator). Core protocol operations (PT/YT minting, LP actions) are permissionless on each chain and require no external keeper. Yellow because keeper dependency exists for cross-chain governance coordination but not for primary protocol operations.
